Ouch.

That's the problem with this state- everything is either the middle of nowhere or, indeed, "a wretched hive of scum and villainy."

Ohio State can suck it, that's for sure. Unfortunately, one of my friend's dad's is an alum... Let's just say this year's Illibuck game had unfortunate consequences.

The Midwest is so big... I'm from Indiana and I think of the Midwest as including Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, and maybe Wisconsin.

It seems like all of "Flyover country" is represented in this thread.

I also think of Colorado, Wyoming, and a few other states containing the Rockies to be Midwestern, but that's an entirely separate (and more literal) midwest.

They're midwest, as west would be the coast.
